    fatalz got a reaction from BTGbullseye in MSI RX 580 crashing despite under-clocking   
    Could you make sure the molex adapters are not running on the same line?

    There are seperate lines for 12V and other voltages which could be heavily affecting your GPU.

    The CPU (65W) + GPU (185W) + other components ( extreme RGB worst case sceneario ) [30W] means that your usage is usually under 250 W or so even under long periods of gaming.

    When it crashes can you check if there's a mother board light that's generally blue?
    This light usually means that the system doesnt have the required power and has entered power saving mode. Which also means that the PSU is .... fried.

    Come back to me when this doesnt help or it helps.
    If it doesn't help I could get you back on track as it helps narrow my understanding of whats going on in that poor rig.

    $1100 dollars m8.
    You could get a better gaming experience but you mentioned AAA games so 60hz will do.
    For a budget gaming laptop, that's the best laptop I've seen so far. 
    I'm not sure how the prices range in your region but the laptops here under $1100 are
    Lenovo Legion y530
    Dell G3, Dell G5
    Acer Predator Helios 300

    Or wait for q2 of 2019 for the refresh of the series of mainstream laptops from all companies.
    You could get a new turing gpu, better cpu and so on.

    I'm waiting for the Lenovo Legion y540 which are the refreshes of the y530.
